CiteAb Launches the Explore Platform

In an exciting development for the scientific research community, CiteAb, a renowned leader in scientific databases, has officially launched its latest innovation—the CiteAb Explore Platform. This powerful platform is designed to streamline the process of selecting antibodies and reagents, effectively saving researchers valuable time and resources while improving reproducibility in experimental results.

The CiteAb Explore Platform integrates two main components: the globally respected Reagent Search Engine and a new Image Search Engine. This dual-engine approach employs over ten years of data collection powered by artificial intelligence (AI) and expert human curation. Boasting a database of more than 16 million research tools and their applications in over 40 million academic publications, CiteAb is transforming the way researchers find and utilize reagents in their experiments.

Powerful Tools for Enhanced Research

Revolutionary Image Search Engine

One of the standout features of the Explore Platform is its new Image Search tool. This tool allows researchers to quickly explore peer-reviewed experimental images that have been curated with input from the scientific community. Researchers can access over 850,000 cropped experimental images linked to a wide range of proteins, diseases, and cell lines, streamlining the identification of relevant reagents and techniques.

Key benefits of this feature include:

• - Time-saving Filters: Researchers can filter experimental images based on various criteria such as application and disease, facilitating faster identification of suitable reagents.
• - Reduction of Experimental Failures: By reviewing published methods and studying the reagents that have produced successful results, researchers can minimize the chances of failure in their own experiments.
• - Expanded Knowledge Base: Users can explore a wealth of publications associated with images, ensuring they are building on solid, verified research.

Improved Reagent Search Engine

CiteAb's Reagent Search Engine is already a trusted resource for scientists at leading pharmaceutical companies. This updated tool now includes instrument data, enabling researchers to search for a wide array of reagents, including antibodies, proteins, biochemicals, and cell lines.

Focusing solely on citation metrics, this search engine helps researchers evaluate reagents based on experimental outcomes, supplier information, and validated third-party data, making reagent identification more straightforward and reliable.

A Solution to the Reproducibility Crisis

Dr. Andrew Chalmers, CEO of CiteAb, emphasized the importance of these tools in overcoming the reproducibility crisis affecting modern scientific research. He noted that ineffective antibodies alone account for an estimated $1 billion in wasted research funding each year. By enabling scientists to identify dependable reagents, the Explore Platform allows them to concentrate more on groundbreaking discoveries rather than troubleshooting ineffective materials.

The CiteAb Explore Platform thus not only enhances the efficiency of the research process but also aligns with the increasing demand for reproducible science. By cutting down the time researchers spend on navigating various fragmented data sources, it significantly reduces research and development waste, ultimately facilitating more accurate and reproducible results.

Accessing the Explore Platform

The CiteAb Explore Platform is accessible at no cost to academics, with a subscription model available for commercial users. For those interested in trying out the features, a two-week free trial offers users the chance to explore the full capabilities of the platform. Interested parties can visit citeab.com for more details and to sign up for the trial.
